Sad, since who knows what could have come about with XML apps (sez me who stayed in HTML WG 'til charter lost pre XHTML 2.0)! But, people have managed it. Pain, yes. But your command of your toolbox is unique and long-lasting. R.E.S.P.E.C.T. my friend!

Or followed any of their original five design principles. I still think they did important work, but it ain't markup and it ain't semantic. Back to that "one must win" crap. Cracking open the DOM has injured real semantic and declarative ideals and closed a lot of "open" in Web.
